Alice is standing on the circumference of a large circular room of radius $10$. There is a circular pillar in the center of the room of radius $5$ that blocks Alice’s view. The total area in the room Alice can see can be expressed in the form $\frac{m\pi}{n} +p\sqrt{q}$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers and $p$ and $q$ are integers such that $q$ is square-free. Compute $m + n + p + q$. (Note that the pillar is not included in the total area of the room.)

A path from $ (0,0)$ to $ (n,n)$ on the lattice is made up of unit moves upward or rightward. It is balanced if the sum of the x-coordinates of its $ 2n\plus{}1$ vertices equals the sum of their y-coordinates. Show that a balanced path divides the square with vertices $ (0,0)$, $ (n,0)$, $ (n,n)$, $ (0,n)$ into two parts with equal area.

A positive integer is called [i]downhill[/i] if the digits in its decimal representation form a nonstrictly decreasing sequence from left to right. Suppose that a polynomial $P(x)$ with rational coefficients takes on an integer value for each downhill positive integer $x$. Is it necessarily true that $P(x)$ takes on an integer value for each integer $x$?

[b]1.[/b] Let $a$ ( $\neq e$, the unit element) be an element of finite order of a group $G$ and let $t$ ($\geq 2$) be a positive integer. Show: if the complex $A= \{ e,a,a^2, \dots , a^{t-1} \} $ is not a group, then for every positive integer $k$( $2 \leq k \leq t$) the complex $B= \{ e. a^k, a^{2k}, \dots , a^{(t-1)k} \} $ differs from $A$.

Square $ABCD$ has side length $5$. Draw E on $BC$ and $F$ on $AD$ such that $BE < AF$. Next, flip $ABCD$ across $EF$ to a square $A'B'C'D'$ such that $C'$ lies in the interior of $ABCD$ and $C$ lies in the interior of $A'B'C'D'$. Suppose that $CC' = 4$ and $DD' = 2$. Compute $AA'$.

Let $\triangle ABC$ be an acute triangle. Point $D$ is arbitrarily chosen on the side $BC$. Let the circumcircle of the triangle $\triangle ADB$ intersect the segment $AC$ at $M$, and the circumcircle of the triangle $\triangle ADC$ intersect the segment $AB$ at $N$. Prove that the tangents of the circumcircle of the triangle $\triangle AMN$ at $M$ and $N$ intersect at a point that lies on the line $BC$.

Joshua likes to play with numbers and patterns. Joshua's favorite number is $6$ because it is the units digit of his birth year, $1996$. Part of the reason Joshua likes the number $6$ so much is that the powers of $6$ all have the same units digit as they grow from $6^1$:
\begin{align*}6^1&=6,\\6^2&=36,\\6^3&=216,\\6^4&=1296,\\6^5&=7776,\\6^6&=46656,\\\vdots\end{align*}
However, not all units digits remain constant when exponentiated in this way. One day Joshua asks Michael if there are simple patterns for the units digits when each one-digit integer is exponentiated in the manner above. Michael responds, "You tell me!" Joshua gives a disappointed look, but then Michael suggests that Joshua play around with some numbers and see what he can discover. "See if you can find the units digit of $2008^{2008}$," Michael challenges. After a little while, Joshua finds an answer which Michael confirms is correct. What is Joshua's correct answer (the units digit of $2008^{2008}$)?

Let $r$ be a positive integer, and let $a_0 , a_1 , \cdots $ be an infinite sequence of real numbers. Assume that for all nonnegative integers $m$ and $s$ there exists a positive integer $n \in [m+1, m+r]$ such that
\[ a_m + a_{m+1} +\cdots +a_{m+s} = a_n + a_{n+1} +\cdots +a_{n+s} \]
Prove that the sequence is periodic, i.e. there exists some $p \ge 1 $ such that $a_{n+p} =a_n $ for all $n \ge 0$.

Let $\theta$ and $p(p<1)$ ) be nonnegative real numbers.
Suppose that $f:X\to Y$ is mapping with $f(0)=0$ and $$\left |\left| 2f\left (\frac{x+y}{2}\right )-f(x)-f(y) \right |\right|_Y \leq \theta\left (\left |\left |x\right |\right |_X^p +\left |\left |y\right |\right |_X^p \right )$$ for all $x$, $y\in \mathbb{Z}$ with $x\perp y$ where $X$ is an orthogonality space and $Y$ is a real Banach space.
